VltNNA WIEN VIENNA IN ONE DAY A tram ride round the Ringstrasse, St Stephen's Cathedral, a section of the Hofburg Palace, cakes in a café. TWO DAYS MuseumsQuartier, Spittelberg, Hundertwasserhaus, Prater. THREE DAYS A day at the Belvedere, a night at the opera.

One and all, they succumbed to the opulent aura of Vienna, a city where an appreciation of the arts is as conspicuous as its famed cakes. Sumptuous architecture and a refined air reflect the city's historic position as the seat of the powerful Habsburg dynasty and former epicentre of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
